Definitions
- the present invention relates to a device for immobilizing at least one wheel of a wheelchair installed in a vehicle with a floor, the device comprising means for blocking the front and rear of said wheel, said locking means comprising two articulated flaps intended for frame, when in the raised position and forming a Vee, said wheel.
- the present invention provides a simpler device and allowing free movement when the device is not in use.
- the subject of the invention is therefore a device for immobilizing at least one wheel of a wheelchair installed in a vehicle with a floor, the device comprising means for blocking the front and rear of said wheel, said locking means comprising two articulated flaps intended for frame, when in the raised position and forming a V, said wheel, characterized in that the two flaps are operated by a jack arranged vertically, and connected to each of the two flaps by transmission means comprising a part joint linked to the end of the rod of said jack, said common part comprising, on the one hand, guide means along a guide slide parallel to the jack, during the maneuvers of raising and lowering the flaps, and on the other hand a means cooperating with a holding means fixed in part bottom of the device for locking the flaps in the raised position for use, and in that the two articulated flaps are integrated in the thickness said vehicle floor in their out-of-service position, the upper face of the flaps then flush with said floor.
- An advantage of the immobilizer wheelchair of the invention is that the passenger is autonomous in the passenger car.
- Another advantage of the immobilizer of a wheelchair of the invention is that the means of controls are easily maneuverable.
- Another advantage of the immobilizer of a wheelchair of the invention is that the the invention does not hinder free movement in the passenger car when not in use.
- Another advantage of the immobilizer of a wheelchair of the invention is that the device can be operated under the most severe conditions, know: emergency braking, transverse acceleration and longitudinal.
- Another advantage of the immobilizer of a wheelchair of the invention is that the device is monobloc added, hence easier assembly.
- Another advantage of the immobilizer of a wheelchair of the invention is that the device integrates easily into the environment.
- FIGS 1 and 2 are perspective views of the wheelchair immobilizer according to the invention.
- the wheelchair immobilizer of the invention is capable of being installed in a floor, for example a floor of a passenger car of a rail or road vehicle or a floor from an airplane or a boat.
- the wheelchair immobilizer of the invention is also adapted to function as escalator, for example in a private home or in a public or private building.
- the wheelchair immobilizer of the invention consists of mechanical means integrated in the thickness of the floor and control means of these mechanical means also integrated and accessible to the person using the wheelchair.
- the integrated mechanical means of the device immobilization of a wheelchair of the invention is consist of two articulated flaps 2 arranged in a box 1, the assembly being integrated into the thickness of the vehicle floor 3.
- the two articulated flaps 2 each have a wall 2A movable in rotation relative to the base of the flap articulated concerned.
- the two articulated flaps 2 have the function to immobilize the main R wheels of the wheelchair of the causes the movable walls 2A of the two hinged flaps 2 are positioned, respectively, on both sides of the main wheels of the wheelchair, the walls mobile then forming a Vé.
- the two articulated shutters are flush with the floor while in the position of use (see Figure 2), the two hinged shutters form an obstacle above the floor sufficient to prevent movement of the wheelchair during maximum acceleration, especially when braking emergency.
- control means of the mechanical means integrated include two push buttons 8, 9 arranged, preferably on the upper part of a cover 10 of so as to be accessible to the person using the Wheelchair.
- Control means for integrated mechanical means are for example mechanical, electrical means, pneumatic or hydraulic.
- Locking means 11 control means integrated mechanical means may be used to to order the order of the integrated mechanical means when no wheelchair is placed between the two articulated shutters.
- Authorization to commission the device immobilization of a wheelchair is for example performed using the train officer's service key.
- FIG. 3 represents a front view of a mode of preferred embodiment of the shutter control means articulated.
- the hinged flaps 2 are operated by a actuator by means of transmission of the force produced by the actuator.
- the actuator consists, for example, of a cylinder 4.
- the means of transmission are, for example, rods 5 and levers 13 each linked to a shutter 2.
- the cylinder 4 is for example a pneumatic cylinder.
- the jack 4 is arranged vertically relative to the floor 3 of the vehicle.
- the articulated flaps 2 are arranged on either side of the jack 4 and are, each, connected to one end of the jack via the lever 13, articulated at one end of the link 5, and of a common part 6 to which is articulated the other end of each link 5.
- the common part 6, linked to the end of the rod of the jack 4 locks the hinged flaps in the use position (flaps 2 raised, horizontal rods 5) by penetration of a 6D projection of the part common 6 in a well 6E of a holding means 6A of cylindrical shape arranged coaxially with the jack 4 and fixed in the lower part of the box 1.
- This locking of the flaps 2, in their position of use, by the penetration of the projection 6D of the common part 6 into the well 6E of the holding means 6A has the function of taking up the forces exerted by the rods 5 during a force applied to one or other of the flaps 2 in this raised position of use, particularly when moving the vehicle.
- this common part 6 comprises a lug 6C which slides in a section guide guide 7 transverse U-shaped arranged parallel to the cylinder 4, until, in limit switch, the projection 6D of the part 6 comes into the well 6E of the holding means 6A.
